I am a wife, a mother and a Christian
I am ridiculously scared of spiders. All spiders.All sizes. Doesn't matter- hate them ALL!
I am a total Type A personality (this girl LOVES a SCHEDULE and a PLAN!)
Sweets are my ultimate weakness (Yes I will absolutely sample your wedding cake!)
I was born and raised in South Carolina
I love to cook and maybe in another life would have gone to culinary school
I kinda think I can DIY just about anything- my husband kinda disagrees with this statement.
I have photographed weddings in St. Louis, Mexico, Italy and St. Lucia (yes- I will travel!)
Home decor is a hobby of mine
My photography style and aesthetic can be checked out on the portfolio page. I would love to be part of your special day.
I have been in business since 2005 and have photographed hundreds of weddings. What does that mean? Well, in short- I HAVE SEEN IT ALL: late wedding party members (and late Brides!), rained out ceremonies, intoxicated guests (and Grooms- haha), crazy winds that take out entire reception decor, falling cakes....you name it! I've learned the best ways to handle alllll of these catastrophes and situations, AND still deliver BEAUTIFUL PHOTOS.
I will always be professional at your wedding. Myself and my team will always be dressed appropriately for your event (you won't find us in too-short, or crazy colored dresses, flip flops or shorts/jeans- gasp! ). We will look like one of your wedding guests. We will always be courteous, helpful and polite.
My stated turnaround time for delivering a wedding is 4-6 weeks, however I pride myself in typically being able to deliver galleries much quicker than that (of course the exact speed will also depend on how many other weddings I am working on at the time, and well...LIFE!). I am constantly receiving messages from my couples, thanking me for completing their galleries so quickly!
Here’s a peek into my life on a wedding day. Yes, weddings days are typically filled with a certain amount of stressful situations and usually 8-10 hours of non-stop hard work, but there is also plenty of opportunities to keep it lighthearted and FUN! (for my clients and myself!)
In addition to being your Wedding Photographer, you might also label me:
Seamstress
bouquet maker
(everyone forgets the toss bouquets!)
veil-fixer
wedding party wrangler
meteorologist
keeper of the bobby pins / safety pins
boutonniere-pinner
FRIEND!
Here you can find the list of my current equipment. I find myself upgrading camera bodies every few years (hey I love new toys, what can I say?)…and most recently I made the switch to all mirrorless.
I have always been a Canon girl; starting way back when with the 20D and 30D’s, then moving on to the 5D Mark II, III and IV lines before converting to mirrorless in 2021.
